Do you want to be part of a revolutionary new company developing products based on a patented technology that can reduce society’s reliance on fossil fuels by creating a new kind of clean fuel?

AlumaPower’s breakthrough technology re-invents the aluminum-air battery as a ‘galvanic engine’ - an innovative long-life energy source that runs on recycled aluminum as a fuel. It produces only water vapour and heat as emitted by-products, while providing at least 4 times the energy density of lithium-ion batteries.

AlumaPower’s patented technology will introduce recycled or ‘clean’ aluminum as a fuel source displacing hydrocarbons and complementing other battery solutions such as lithium-ion.

As a member of the Supply Chain Management team, and supporting the AlumaPower organization in executing the procurement and receipt of materials, you will work closely with various department managers to develop transparency and process efficiency. Regular interaction with the vendor base is expected, ensuring positive vendor relationships and timely corrective actions.

You will take a proactive approach to meeting demand requirement, identifying needs and gaps in our tools and controls. Your ability to multitask and develop multiple channels of communication will be essential to client satisfaction.
